🔗 The Ten Warning Signs - Ted Gioia
GREAT READ
I think my 🖇️ Age of Reason » Age of Experience themes that I have been writing about recently are totally in synch.
🔗🎙️Kafka talking to Jay Graber - an interesting listen - BUT my takeaway as a casual listener was that sites like ‘PinkSky’ are the long awaited ‘seperate instances’ to Bluesky. But no.
There is still not a Bluesky instance that is not on Bluesky.
Disingenuous - or did I mishear?
Really, Really, Really Good. Totally out of left field. AND Nice job of building the cast and the backstories in parallel. Highly recommend.
Dept. Q on 🔗 Reelgood
Definitely solid - a little slow at times - but work with it - it’s a good one
Dope Thief on 🔗 Reelgood
One of those gentle English detective shows that holds it all together pretty constantly. And scenes from all around Chelsea, London .. suitably scenic advertising from time to time. Good stories. …
🎬 I watched ‘Mission Impossible - Dead Reckoning’ over the weekend. From beginning to end.

The court determined that the main issue – whether Workday’s AI system disproportionately affects applicants over 40 – can be addressed collectively, despite the challenges in identifying all potential members of the collective action.”
The Boss released his first album in ’73 and it was clear even then that he wrote songs of disillusionment and protest. So when his fans got all uppity when they realised that ‘Born in the U.S.A.’ wasn’t quite the all American anthem they thought - including ‘Ronnie’, I would have thought that this would have cleaned house of the ‘people that don’t pay attention’.
Clearly not.
